The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of cryoultrasound therapy versus diathermy in combination with high-intensity laser therapy for pain relief in male professional soccer players with muscle injuries. The main questions it intends to answer are: • Is this combination of treatments effective in these patients in terms of pain relief? Participants will receive a rehabilitation treatment consisting of cryo-ultrasound therapy and high intensity laser. Researchers will compare the group of participants, called the treatment group, with a control group to see if: • Is the combined treatment of cryoultrasound therapy and high intensity laser more effective in these patients than the combination of diathermy and high intensity laser?
The design is a single blinded, dual comparative study of ultrasound versus micro-CT/LASCA in one study group. Up to a total of 140 subjects registered will be recruited. Subjects who are treatment planned for extraction of a hopeless tooth and socket augmentation with bone graft and are planned for a dental implant surgery. The socket will be evaluated before the extraction and multi-time points during healing until an implant is placed with various evaluation tools, including ultrasound.
The CE-marketed medical device class IIa RL3010A - DP0378 developed by Pierre Fabre Laboratories is indicated in the treatment of superficial wounds and abrasions. It forms a protective layer on the surface of wounds maintaining a moist environment improving the healing process thanks to its moisturizing and film-forming effect. Through this study, the overall tolerance of the medical device will be evaluated in subjects presenting a superficial wound after having undergone a dermatological procedure as cryotherapy, laser (laser Nd Yag, fractional laser C02), Intense Pulse Light (IPL) or skin lesion excision for which stitches were removed.
Neurocritical care is a major branch in the field of critical care medicine, and more than 50% of the neurocritical care patients in the Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital (TARPH) are in neurocritical care, of which cranial damage accounts for about 30%, and paroxysmal sympathetic hyperexcitability syndrome (PSH) after traumatic brain injury（TBI）is a common complication, which affects the cardiorespiratory and cerebral functions to varying degrees, and optimizing the cerebral perfusion and oxygenation supply is the key point in the treatment of TIB, and the maintenance of the cerebral homeostasis and the functional homeostasis is currently an international hotspot for treatment. Maintaining cerebral homeostasis and body function homeostasis is an international hotspot in the treatment of TIB. This study intends to elaborate on the relationship between PSH and Intracranial blood flow in patients with TBI, as well as the effect of anti-stress treatment on Intracranial blood flow. Implementation Patients with brain injury admitted to our department from January 2021 to January 2022 were included. Non-invasive transcranial Doppler ultrasound was applied to measure cerebral blood flow, non-invasive local cerebral oxygen saturation monitor to measure local cerebral oxygen saturation, and an electroencephalography bispectrometer to measure BIS score to quantify the depth of sedation during the experimental process. Bedside ultrasound monitored the right heart function and lung water status, and the data of each monitoring index were monitored and recorded throughout the whole process, and the relationship between concomitant PSH and Intracranial blood flow in TBI patients was found according to the statistical analysis. Ultimately, to achieve the control of TBI complications and improve patient rescue. To expect to achieve the purpose of improving the prognosis of TBI patients.
The percentage of loss time claims receiving Loss of Earnings benefits at 3 months has continued to rise amongst injured workers in Ontario despite the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) approach of "Better at Work". The primary health services to address loss time claims associated with musculoskeletal injuries include the evidenced-based programs of care, occupational health assessment program and musculoskeletal specialty programs, however, these are set to be revised and relaunched in Q1 2023. Across treatment protocols there are challenges that, at least in part, appear to contribute to the increasing percentage of workers on full loss of earnings at 3 months include (1) inconsistent early identification of workers who should be triaged to various health services and (2) reliable determination of the optimal timing of referral to the most targeted care to enable a safe and sustainable return to work. The investigators aim to develop and evaluate a predictive assessment model to triage workers to the best service within the first 8 weeks of their claim to increase the rate of early return to work, with the long-term goal that the triage protocol becomes part of a person-centric protocol that reduces the duration of work-related disability. The investigators will develop and evaluate an assessment protocol for injured workers that enter any of the musculoskeletal-specific WSIB programs of care, which have been consolidated into a single program as of 2023. This study will be a prospective inception cohort design using data collected from injured workers receiving WSIB musculoskeletal programs of care services at CBI Health clinics in Ontario Canada. Worker data will be collected at intake to the program of care service and again approximately four and eight weeks after intake (or earlier if a worker completes the program of care). The investigators will complete data analysis in three steps including descriptive and bivariate associations, Maximum Likelihood-based Latent Profile Analysis, and evaluation of results against successful work outcomes and secondary outcomes. Qualitative data will be mined for alternative indicators of recovery / non-recovery. The study recruitment goal is 300 - 350 workers with complete follow-up within a 2-year period.
Background：Pressure injuries (PI) are one of the common comorbidities in surgery, meaning PI that occurs immediately after surgery or within hours to 3 days after surgery. The incidence of PI in spine surgery is about 5% ~ 66%. Purpose：Comparison of the difference in pressure injury rates positioning device cotton roll-coated viscoelastic polymer pads versus viscoelastic polymer pads for pressure injuries undergoing lumbar spine surgery Methods：This experimental study used a split-body design with random assignment to compare the pressure-reducing effects of different materials on a patient's body contact points with a positioning device. The experimental group used a Relton-Hall prone frame with cotton roll-coated 3 cm viscoelastic polymer pads, while the control group used a Relton-Hall prone frame with a viscoelastic polymer pads.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of NPWTi and NPWT in superficial and deep surgical site infections using an improvised system with continuous lavage with saline and chlorhexidine. The main question it aims to answer is whether the NPWTi is better than conventional NPWT. Participants will be given NPWTi or conventional NPWT. Researchers will compare the two groups to see if NPWTi diminishes the rate of recurrent infections and the number of reoperations, shortens the hospital stay, and alleviates the burden on the hospital staff in comparison to the conventional NPWT.
This is a single center randomized control trial assessing the effect of early versus delayed bathing on orthopaedic surgical wounds in patients undergoing surgical treatment of fractures. Patients will be recruited by screening all patients undergoing surgical treatment for fractures at our institution. Patients who provide written consent will be randomized to one of two treatment arms after confirming eligibility criteria. Group A will be advised to begin early normal bathing (non-submerged showering) with uncovered surgical wounds. Group B will be advised to follow traditional delayed bathing with covered wounds. Those who do not wish to participate in the randomized trial will be invited to participate observationally (no randomization) and have the same prospective follow-up.
Pain control is an important part of patients' care after a kidney transplant. Currently patients receive a one off injection of Local Anaesthetic (LA) in the wound at the end of the operation followed by Intravenous morphine through a Patient Controlled Analgesia System (PCAS), a button pressed to provide a calculated dose with lock out times for safety. Through this study the aim to test the efficiency of Continuous Local Anaesthetic Infiltration via Wound Catheter (LAWC) which is a method to deliver Local Anaesthetic over a longer period of time after the operation. LAWC are currently in use in a variety of surgical specialities including Liver surgery. Patients participating in this study will be allocated randomly to one of 2 groups; one will receive LA at the end of the operation as per current practice and one will receive LAWC. It then compare outcomes such as the the dose of morphine required in the PCAS, quality of pain control and improvement in recovery.
